Ule First observers dealt with light cloud cover which cleared up by the second observers time slot. Apollo's pointing was fine but the problem from Saturday remains unresolved. Observing was hassle free for the rest of the night. NM05 program used TSPEC only. ------------- FAILURE LOG -------------- PROG INST FAILURE MODE TIME (STEDFNVOG) TI/SHU START FINISH DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- FOCUS LOG --------------- Time Instrument Focus Az El Temp Strc Prim Sec Air filt FWHM ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 20:22 TSPEC 75 -40 51 -2.4 -2.5 -2.3 -2.9 -2.7 - 1.3 00:26 TSPEC 100 -121 55 -4.9 -4.0 -4.2 -4.7 -4.5 - 1.1 01:00 TSPEC 50 -121 49 -5.5 -4.5 -4.7 -5.4 -5.2 - 1.2 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 28 10 5 289 (WNW) 362 ptly cldy none 17:00 28 14 7 266 (W) 530 ptly cldy none 18:00 29 13 12 270 (W) 677 mstly clr none 19:00 28 14 12 270 (W) 646 mstly clr none 20:00 27 15 12 275 (W) 724 clear none 21:00 27 15 7 267 (W) 761 clear none 22:00 26 15 7 244 (WSW) 735 clear none 23:00 25 15 4 247 (WSW) 907 clear none 00:00 26 15 5 244 (WSW) 873 clear none 01:00 23 15 2 237 (WSW) 1137 clear none 02:00 22 17 5 256 (WSW) 1323 clear none 03:00 25 12 13 288 (WNW) 712 clear none 04:00 25 11 12 272 (W) 640 clear none 05:00 26 9 21 302 (WNW) 566 clear none 06:00 27 3 26 294 (WNW) 565 clear none TELESCOPE STATUS Telescope drives operational.
